Random People Describe the Creepiest Person They Ever Met (25 items)

• (#22) Die-Hard Meatloaf Fan

  "Definitely this ratty little Meatloaf fanboy at my last college. It was such a small college (1000 people) that most people were FaceBook friends, or were only separated by one degree. He would lurk on FB for any girl who had recently broken up with her boyfriend, and he would be at her room in under 30 minutes. One of my friends staged a fake break-up, and actually timed him with a stop watch.

  "He glommed onto me after we met at a frat party. Unbelievably, he was in a frat, and I was dating one of his brothers, who revealed to fanboy that I, too, liked Meatloaf. So he would follow me around, telling me obscure trivia facts and asking me if I wanted to watch Meatloaf DVDs with him.

  "I eventually broke up with his frat brother and became really reclusive for a whole school year. Being a ninja was the only way to avoid him."
• (#2) Amateur Photographer

  "A guy I briefly dated in high school. At first I thought he was awkward and charming. But then I visited his bedroom and there were pictures of me sleeping attached to his ceiling."
• (#21) Mad Maurice

  "An old guy who would frequent the bars in my home town of Derry. He had the nickname 'Mad Maurice', so you can probably see where this is going.

  "He looked like a normal, late-50s, past-his-prime guy who had nothing better to do with his time than to sit in bars all day sipping a few pints and placing a few bets. Except that he had a permanent grin on his face and deliberate boss eyes.

  "The problem with Mad Maurice is that he would occasionally approach people and do very odd or aggressive things. He would approach groups of young people on a night out and say he had damaged their car brakes because he wanted them dead. Sometimes he would scream obscenities at bar staff for no reason. Most creepily he would somtimes stand or sit close to a group and listen to their conversation - he wouldn't try to hide it. If asked to mind his own business, he would complain and say he had every right to listen. If people went quiet on him, he would ask them to speak up.

  "My most direct encounter with Maurice was around the time my mother had her bad stroke. A few weeks had passed and my best mate dragged me out for a few drinks to try and cheer me up. I wasn't really in a fun mood that night and I was more drowning my sorrows than getting cheered up. Maurice had been listening in (we hadn't noticed) and when he got up to leave, he came up to me and shouted in my ear, "YOU ARE TALKING SH*T. SHE F*CKING DESERVED WHAT SHE GOT," and left. It took my mate and three barstaff to stop me from chasing after him.

  "That encounter was fairly typical of Mad Maurice encounters with people in Derry. I think he's barred from most pubs by now."
• (#24) Strange Homeless Man

  "My friends and I were on the subway and a homeless man came and sat across from us. He had a bottle of vodka and a cup full of change. He looked at my blonde friend and said, 'You have pretty hair, you must be a viking.' He then put the cup of change to his lips, tilted it back, coughed/choked a little, and said, 'What goes in must come out!'"
• (#14) The Creepy Teethstalker

  "So, this guy on a site contacts me, and we get to talking. I mention that I'd had a dentist's appointment earlier that day, and he got really interested. Creepy interested. He wanted me to take a picture of my teeth (he said he wanted to see what fillings looked like). I humored him, and then he started asking for more pictures, at specific angles.

  "I pretty much stopped responding at that point, but for a good YEAR AND A HALF after, this guy would send me a message every few weeks asking how come I didn't talk to him any more - and mind you, we only had one conversation.

  "My friends refer to him as the creepy teethstalker."
• (#4) Unnerving Co-Worker

  "A creepy guy who works at my local Walmart was sitting and talking to me one day (I worked there too, at the time). He felt the need to confide in me that at one point in his youth he went to the house of his crush, crawled in her open window, and hid under her bed before she came home for the night. He stayed there until she came home, changed, and had fallen asleep. He just slipped right back out the window and into the night. 

  "My box spring has been on the floor ever since."
